Hey,

I have shared the details through a DM. Please review it.

Aaron has shared before that this string is what shows when abuse has been flagged, and it isn’t necessarily anything about the text. I appreciate that he has contacted you directly about this warning.

(My guess from both photos being from the same angle is that this was flagged as a third party photo.)

This is one of those narratives that frequently causes confusion and distress.

Since it can apparently be caused by a multitude of different causes (The photo is not yours (e.g., taken from streetview, found on another website), the text itself is abusive, the nomination is controversial and likely to be offensive (e.g., a mural of terrorists), another nomination was abusive and all of yours have been flagged as a consequence, the wayspot location pin is deliberately misplaced, the wayspot is deliberately misrepresented (e..g., on school property but pretending it isn’t), there may be others), it would be nice if the narrative could move away from focusing on just one of these and be a little bit more general.

This can be done without changing anything other than this text string.

Agree it would be nice to update this text string, especially since it is an acknowledged source of confusion.

I just had to correct “accurate” to “general” in my posting, because it can’t be more accurate when it covers such a broad variety of issues, without actually changing the system.
